Another reason why I love Minneapolis

On my way home this afternoon I stopped by a few of my record stores. At the last store I quickly noticed a guy leaning up against the LPs who I thought I recognized. I said to myself "That's Husker Du's Grant Hart". Turned out I was right. At one point I was thumbing through the used LPs and as I came across a few Husker Du LP's I realized that the voice I was hearing from ten feet away was the drummer for that band. Surreal. Grant and the shop owner were listening to a copy of Grant's new yet to be released album, which Hart plans to shop to the labels at this year's SXSW.
